Before Ms. Scrooge, there was this film, one of only two that I am aware of with a female Scrooge.
Susan Lucci was just perfect in the role of Elizabeth (Ebbie) Scrooge, but it was the Christmas Ghosts that really stole the show.
George Kaczender (Christmas on Division Street) has another hit with this film that is based on Dickens' novel.
Wendy Crewson (Santa Clause, Santa Clause 2, The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause) plays Roberta 'Robbie' Cratchet, a single mom with two children, including Tiny Tim.
Jennifer Clement and Nicole Parker were fantastically cute as the Ghosts of Christmas Past. They had a "Dreamgirls" look at first, then switched to an "I Dream of Genie" look. It was certainly a different twist.
Lorena Gale (Premonition, Slither) was the Ghost of Christmas present and was so funny in that role.
Molly Parker from "Deadwood" was the sister/niece.
This was an interesting and light version that was really enjoyable.
